A review into the investigation of missing Corrie McKeague by Suffolk Constabulary has concluded that police explored all reasonable lines of inquiry.

The review conducted by East Midlands Special Operations Unit also says that the Dunfermline RAF gunner is most likely to be in the Milton landfill site, where police have resumed searches for Corrie this week.

However, the report will not be released due to it containing operationally sensitive material.

Corrie, 23, was last seen walking through Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, after a night out with friends.

The report added that police have conducted "thorough, methodical and detailed" investigation.

Mr McKeague, based at RAF Honington in Suffolk, was last seen on CCTV at 3.25am on September 24, 2016.

A bin lorry was captured on CCTV near Brentgovel Street in Bury St Edmunds around the time Mr McKeague was last seen.

It took a route which appeared to coincide with the movements of his phone.

The bin lorry linked to Mr McKeague’s disappearance was initially thought to have collected a 24lbs (11kgs) load but police said it was later found to be more than 220lbs (100kgs).
